Indorsement Letter

Indorsement is a method used to transmit or reply to a communication by writing on the incoming communication itself rather than preparing a new communication.

An indorsement is concerned with the same subject as the letter to which it pertains It is normally phrased in brief form – a simple statement rather than a lengthy consideration of the subject of the letter.

Indorsements become an integral part of the basic communication and will not be withdrawn from the document to which they are appended.

An indorsement includes the heading, body and close. Beginning with the first, indorsements are numbered consecutively with Arabic numbers.

If there is enough space at the end of the basic letter, the indorsement is sometimes written there. Where there is insufficient space to complete the indorsement on the basic letter, it is begun on that page and continued to an additional sheet. When the basic letter fills the first page, the indorsement is written on a separate sheet of plain bond paper. An indorsement is never written on the back of a page.
